Irrigation of the maxillary sinus by canine fossa puncture. Experience with 202 patients

Maxillary sinus lavage through the canine fossa was performed on 202 patients. This procedure is relatively safe, easily learned and quickly performed, has minimal side effects and a very low percentage of failures, and is more acceptable to most patients. It should be used by otolaryngologists, at least as a useful alternative to the classical method.
